Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Inspections

A Safe Solution

Being able to get to difficult to access areas, to heights and to potentially dangerous and unstable areas of a site, factory or building, is very costly and sometimes impossible due to health and safety concerns. Hiring and mounting scaffolding, a cherry picker etc are slow and costly methods which can now be avoided with drones.

One of the many applications for drones is in UAV inspections, or drone inspections. Our clients are finding our services very useful for roof inspections, inspections of guttering, chimneys. Using our remotely controlled drone we provide clients with high resolution photographs and video survey footage of structures that would otherwise be difficult to inspect. There’s no need to scaffold a building or hire a cherry picker to carry out your roof survey or building structure survey. We can provide you with the survey footage to analyse at your own computer.

Having an unmanned aerial vehicle creates access to objects and places that otherwise would be impossible. Whether it is a close proximity bridge inspection or a leaky oil pipeline with thousands of pounds of potentially deadly built up pressure. UAVs or Drone are ideal for carrying out inspections that would otherwise present a dangerous situation for an employee. Drone technology allows you to keep personnel safe while also gathering the necessary video and data required to operate your business.

We have recently added to our cameras a zoom camera for aerial work, especially for inspections. This has become very useful for close up shots.

Our Panasonic Lumix G Vario 35-100mm zoom is ideal to get up close shots of details that would normally require the drone to fly too close to buildings. We can now fly safe distances whilst acquiring the photographs needed by our clients.

All commercial drone pilots/companies must hold a current permission/certification issued by the Civil Aviation Authority, otherwise known as the CAA. Our CAA ID is 1142. No online registers of drone operators has any CAA approval. As such, we are not involved in any such registers.

We are insured by Coverdrone, a comprehensive aviation insurance product for the commercial drone industry and is fully compliant with EU regulation EC785/2004.
